Sure enough, right on cue, that’s exactly what he did.
Big Ben was awful in the second half of last season, as he was virtually immobile in the pocket. Not only that, he rarely ever even attempted a pass for more than 20 yards downfield. And yet he still continued to indicate that his arm strength hadn’t dwindled.

“My arm feels really, really good.”
We’ve heard this song and dance before. Big Ben had a solid first half of the season last year, but it was all downhill from then on. The version of him we see in December is what matters to us, and we’re a long way away from that point in time.
